Description

Process for the preparation of 2- (aminomethyl) -N, N-diethyl-1-phenylcyclopropanecarboxamide and salts thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of drug synthesis, in particular to a preparation method of 2- (aminomethyl) -N, N-diethyl-1-phenylcyclopropanecarboxamide and salts thereof.
Background
Milnacipran (Milnacipran) is a novel specific 5-hydroxytryptamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), developed by Pierre fabric medical, france, and marketed in 1997 as a drug for the treatment of depression, and was approved by the FDA in the united states for the treatment of fibromyalgia syndrome in 2009. The chemical name of milnacipran is: 2- (Aminomethyl) -N, N-diethyl-1-phenylcyclopropanecarboxamide, having the formula: c 15 H 22 N 2 O, the chemical structural formula is as follows:
Figure BDA0001920803270000011
at present, the hydrochloride of milnacipran is used clinically, and the chemical name is as follows: 2- (aminomethyl) -N, N-diethyl-1-phenylcyclopropanecarboxamide hydrochloride having the formula: c 15 H 22 N 2 O & HCl, chemical structure as follows:
Figure BDA0001920803270000012
as a fourth generation antidepressant, milnacipran can simultaneously inhibit reuptake of 5-hydroxytryptamine and norepinephrine by neurons, so that the transmitter concentration in synaptic cleft is increased, and the synaptic transmission function is promoted to play an antidepressant role. Milnacipran has high affinity for 5-hydroxytryptamine and norepinephrine and alpha 1 -adrenoceptor, muscarinic receptor and H 1 The histamine receptor has no affinity and no effect on monoamine oxidase activity. The milnacipran does not participate in the reaction of cytochrome P450 enzyme, so that the milnacipran hardly interacts with other medicines, has better tolerance, and does not have abnormal phenomenon of receptor regulation even if the milnacipran is taken for a long time. Compared with tricyclic and SSRIs antidepressants, the milnacipran has more obvious antidepressant effect, is obviously superior to placebo, has no hypersomnia and anticholinergic effect which are common in tricyclic, has less gastrointestinal adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting and the like than SSRIs, and has more obvious dysuria and tremor. Milnacipran can be used for acute-phase treatment and maintenance-phase treatment of depression, and can also be used for treating depression after stroke, depression after brain trauma and chronic pain syndrome, and is a promising antidepressant.
At present, a number of documents disclose methods for synthesizing milnacipran and its salts. Patent EP0200638A1 discloses a synthetic route to milnacipran hydrochloride. In the method, phthalimide potassium salt and lactone are reacted to generate a ring-opening product, carboxyl acyl chloride is activated to react with alkylamine, the milnacipran is obtained through hydrazinolysis, and finally the final product milnacipran hydrochloride is obtained through salification. The synthetic route is as follows:
Figure BDA0001920803270000021
the method uses highly toxic hydrazine reagent, and hydrazine can produce toxic and side effects on liver, kidney, blood, etc. There are data showing that hydrazine may have a carcinogenic effect. Therefore, the use of a large amount of hydrazine reagent puts a great pressure on the safety and environmental protection of operators. In addition, the process has poor yield and purity, and is not suitable for industrial mass production.
Patent application CN101107228A discloses a synthesis method of milnacipran hydrochloride, which comprises the steps of reacting phthalimide potassium salt with lactone to generate phthalimido derivatives, reacting 40% methylamine water solution with the phthalimido derivatives to obtain milnacipran, and salifying with hydrochloric acid to obtain milnacipran hydrochloride. The specific route is as follows:
Figure BDA0001920803270000022
the problems with this route are: 40% methylamine water solution is used for reaction, the property of the generated by-product N, N-dimethyl phthalic diamide is close to that of the main product, and the generated by-product N, N-dimethyl phthalic diamide is separated out in the reaction liquid and forms a suspension state, so that the by-product N, N-dimethyl phthalic diamide is not easy to separate from the main product, the difficulty of post-treatment is increased, and the obtained product has poor purity and low yield. In addition, methylamine is highly irritant and corrosive, stimulates the respiratory system and the skin, has serious damage to eyes, and is also not suitable for industrial mass production.
In the milnacipran synthesis route disclosed in patent application CN103601652A, lactone firstly reacts with thionyl chloride in an alcoholic solution for ring opening reaction to obtain cis-2-chloromethyl-1-phenyl cyclopropane carboxylic acid methyl ester, then reacts with sodium azide to obtain cis-2-azidomethyl-1-phenyl cyclopropane carboxylic acid methyl ester, and reacts with diethylamine after hydrolysis to obtain cis-N, N-diethyl-2-azidomethyl-1-phenyl cyclopropane carboxamide, and finally the milnacipran is obtained by reduction through Pd/C.
Figure BDA0001920803270000031
The route adopts sodium azide as a reactant, and the reactant is not only highly toxic, but also is extremely easy to cause explosion, and is not suitable for industrial mass production. In addition, the route uses Pd/C and other metal reducing agents with higher price, so that the process cost is increased, the heavy metal of the product is easy to exceed the standard, and the difficulty in purifying the product is increased.
Therefore, the development of a synthesis process of milnacipran and its salts, which is economical, efficient, high in yield, environmentally friendly, suitable for industrial production and has high purity, is urgently needed.
